I tried the demo out and realized that there's no Edge parameters as
well, preventing me from creating a sine wave. And by the control
map file, I was talking about the one given here:
http://www.kvr-vst.com/howto.php?id=1http://www.kvr-vst.com/resources/AN1xMap.txtUnfortunately, as I tried putting this file with the name
ControlMap.txt in C:\Program Files\Pro-53\MIDI Controller Templates
as well as C:\Program Files\Pro-53 and even C:\Program Files\Pro-53
\Presets, I can't seem to be able to get it to load. Yes, I did set
my control mode to 1.
Also when you say modulated, do you just mean switched? I'm a bit
confused about the format of the poly-mod and wheel-mod sections
since they have named knobs with buttons, unlike the specific knobs
PWsrc and Pmod have which range from 1-127(my synth jargon is pretty
weak). I thought maybe the knob would be blank and I can switch to
whatever knob parameter group I want to on the pro53 like I can on
the AN1x, which doesn't happen to be the case at all. So for
example, how would I get these following parameters onto the pro53:
VCO1
edge: 100
PWM depth: +15
PWM source: fixed
Pmod depth: +10
PEG/LFO
PEG decay: +12
PEG depth: +37
PEG sw: both
LFO1 wave: sine
LFO1 speed: 79
LFO1 Delay: 0
LFO2 Speed: 11

Which I'm more than willing to do by slightly moving the AN1x knobs
to get approximate settings onto the pro53.

I don't know if the lack of a control matrix severely impairs me from
trying to do what I'm doing. If not, then I feel I can do without
it. If so, I'll check out what you're suggesting. Thanks Jon. I
appreciate all of this help.
